This sounds like we’re running into “the attacker has the initiative” problem. Anything that is posted, can be defeated. A fleet designed to counter B will be destroyed by C.

If The fleet managed to defeat the traditional counter to it’s type, Rewriting the orders and deployment will tend to allow you to defeat it.
